The study team will create an online module via the REDCap platform. The module will include around 5 videos and several infographics covering the topics of symptoms, transmission, prevention, vaccination, and treatment of the monkeypox virus. Surveys assessing the primary and secondary study endpoints will be given to participants before and after the module. The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy and acceptability of an educational presentation on monkeypox in a cohort of individuals recruited from Rainbow Health and to secondarily assess participant risk perception, intention to vaccinate, and confidence in public health initiatives.
